hundred, or any fraction over one hundred at
the same time, at the rate Of three cents each,
to permanent residents Of Griggs county only,
for gray and stripped gopher tails the same to
be killed within the limits Of Griggs county.
The county clerk isito receive the gopher tails
each Saturday In amounts of not less than 100
and give receipts for the same. The bounty
is to extend during the months Of May and
June. 1t would seem that this is an example
that Steele county commissioners might follow
with profit and3if 1t is to be dono at all now is
the time. Commissioner Wilcox can do no
act that will meet with more hearty approval
from his constituents than to bring this sub
ject before the boaM and use his best endeav-
ors to have them enact measure similar to
and having the SAME purpose as that adopted
by Griggs county.
We notice that several counties in the ter
ritory have already taken steps to avail them
selves of the law passed by the last legislature
authorizing counties to bond their outstanding
Indebtedness, and haYe authorized the issue Of
bonds in sufficient amount to redeem their out
standing orders ana place themselves on
cash basis. Itseenls to us that 1t would be the
part OF wisdom forthe county commissioners
Of Steele county to falloW tho example thus
set. Notwithstanding that the financial stand
ing Of Steele county is as good as almost any
county in the territory with equal resources,
yet our orders stand at about IL per cent dis
count, aud this amount is added to the price Of
all supplies purchased for the county.
There is no question but that an issue of
7per cent bonds to the amount Of $4,000
could be disposed OF at par-possibly at
premium. AS the interest which the county
now pays on orders amounts to the same per
cent as would DO paid on bonds, it eau readily
be seen that a cash system would result in
large Saving to the county.
| Another thing In favor OF the Cash system is
that 1t would very much simplify tho work of
the county treasurer both in tile collection Of
taxes and the keeping of his accounts. 1t
would insure the prompt payment Of the sala-
ries Of county officials and those who do work
for the county, and would permit Of reiuc-
ton in the rate of taxation.
We are of opinion that measure of this
kind would meet the hearty approval of the
people of tue county, and we hope our county
commissioners will at an early day take this
matter UP and take the necessary steps TO wipe
out our floating debt by an issue Of bonds suf-
ficient for that purpose.

Minneapolis millers need to be awake to the

receipts the year round. for it could always

A Southern correspondent says, The first
hint Of how to make artificial ice must have
come from a man who had closely studied ma
ture's laws. Before the war all ice used in
the South was shipped from the North, and it
had ready sale at $5 per hundred pounds
Many ships were engaged in the trade, load
ing the ice on tho New England coast and de-
liverisg it at Charleston, Mobile, Galveston,
and other points. Much of this ice was nat
urally lost In the handling, and the high price
made it an article Of luxury. The invention
Of process by which ice could be turned out
in large quantities at very low rates was,
therefore, hailed with great satisfaction. There
is now not city of any size in. the South with
out its manufactory, aud ice can be had at re-
tail for 81 to $l.50 per hundreds pounds. No
Northern ice can find market except along
the seaboard. have seen, on three different
occasions, Jumps Of Northern ice and cakes Of
artificial ice placed side by side in the sun,
and in each instance the artificial ice lasted
much the longest.

The reduction OF internal revenue and tho
taking off Of revenue stamps from proprietary
medicines, no doubt has largely benefited the
consumers, as well as relieving the burden Of
home manufacturers. Especially is this the
case with Green's August flower and Boschee's
German syrup, as the reduction Of thirty-six
cents per dozen, has been added to Increase
the size Of the bottles containing these reme-
dies, thereby giving one-third more medicine
in the rs cent size. The August Flower for
dyspepsia and liver comp aint and the German
syrup for cough and lung troubles. have per-
haps, the largest sale Of any medicines in tho
world. The advantage Of increased size Of the
bottles will be greatly appreciated by the sick
and afflicted, in every town and village in civil
lied countries. Sample bottles for ten cents
